I am a Ph.D. student in Bioinformatics at Boston University. Originally from İzmir-Turkey, I spent 8 wonderful years at Galatasaray Lisesi / Mekteb-i Sultani (Devre 128, GS-USA). I received my B.S. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Bilkent University in Ankara, Turkey.

My current research interests include Transcriptional Regulation, Genomic Data Integration, Statistical Analysis of ChIP-chip Data. I work with Zhiping Weng at Zlab.

I am not leaving a spiritual legacy of dogmas, unchangeable petrified directives. My spiritual legacy is science and reason. ... What I wanted to do and what I tried to achieve for the Turkish nation is quite evident. If those people who wish to follow me after I am gone take the reason and science as their guides they will be my true spiritual heirs.
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, 1933
